I have almost a year to prepare my NT for amphibious travel......hahaha
I have access to a pontoon boat! 
Hey, I'm still hoping we can get a fall ride in, in that beautiful area!

Dirtflier - sorry about the "high jacking", I'll bet that's a first. lol I'll be more careful in the future! Darn spontaneous typing.
My son just when to Snowshoe for a bike event. He said many of the back roads are deteriorated by the fracking trucks. He saw a sign on one property that the owner wrote "Motorcycles be careful Road in Bad Shape". I missed the Roadrunner event due to wife's ALC issue (2 days before leaving), so I don't have first had knowledge.

The road between Snowshoe Village and Cass has always been marginal. Not only is it tight and twisty in spots but the surface is well-used and abused but that never stopped me from using that road if I wanted to head east from US 219 at Slaty Fork.
ps. To me, the warning sign "Motorcycles be careful..." is aimed at the large, twin cylinder dinosaurs (with no ground clearance) from Milwaukee.

I am not sure of roads he traveled. He lives in Delaware, OH and road to Snowshoe. He usually takes roads that are twisty on a ride. I was at North Bend SP for a RV trip just a week ago (9/1-3), and the roads to and from there was mostly okay. Really liked North Bend, big sites and nice large sites. I think PA has much worst roads then the ones I was RVing on that WV.

For one night at the NT Gathering, probably Friday after most people have arrived, WVRider & I are thinking about having a "Pizza Night" on that rear deck behind the lodge building. If allowed, riders can provide their own adult beverages. We'll calculate the cost and ask everything to chip-in the necessary green backs.

Pizza is always a good idea. Thanks.
I hope I can make it there again next year.
Well organized, great roads, good venue, and MOST IF ALL GREAT PEOPLE.

I put it on my calendar. I'm at least thinking about it.

For those who've never been to North Bend SP, the lodge has a nice restaurant that is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner with good food! And they've always put together a bunch of tables for us so we could all eat in one group. The camping area is about 100 yards from the lodge so still easy access on foot.
ps. I'll bring the labels & pens again for name tags.

It's on my calendar, but Momma may need an unexpected surgery that might wipe out my vacation time. We shall see.....It would be great if you could make it + JungleJim, TurboJim, and MikeSim.
